Episode description

The FBI says it's launching an investigation into a Twitter hack that hit around 130 high profile accounts, including Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Meanwhile, it's reported Donald Trump may have been protected from the same cyber attack because of extra security already imposed on his account by the social media giant. Also, the UK government says it's "95% sure" Russia's behind attempts to steal data on coronavirus vaccine work. And Facebook's adding reminders to wear face masks in public to its news feed.
